Upturn Advisory & Investor View for CPT

11/13/2026: CPT (1-star) has a low Upturn Star Rating. Not recommended to BUY.

Camden Property Trust is a prominent U.S.-listed multifamily REIT specializing in the ownership and development of apartment communities in high-growth Sun Belt markets. The company is known for its disciplined approach to portfolio management, frequently recycling capital from older assets into modern developments. Its primary strength lies in its geographic positioning, which has historically benefited from strong population and employment growth. However, the company faces risks from increased market competition and sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations. Investors looking for a stable income stream through dividends, combined with long-term exposure to the residential real estate market, may find this stock a suitable component for their portfolio.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
CPT receives a 4-star rating, supported by solid unit economics, solid company fundamentals, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
CPT has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+135.4%) and strong cash generation (FCF margin 24.5%) are partially offset by moderate revenue growth (+1.9%), modest insider ownership of 1.47%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
CPT's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (24.5% of revenue). Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Earnings growth is CPT's strongest growth driver at +135.4% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (+1.9%, moderate) and free-cash-flow growth (+1.3%, moderate) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 103.4% and approximately 98.1% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 1.47% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

Top 5 Institutional Investors

BlackRock Inc 9.25%
Vanguard Portfolio Management, LLC 7.21%
FMR Inc 6.68%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 5.67%
State Street Corp 5.62%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
CPT generates approximately $614 of gross profit, $184 of operating income, and $245 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong margins and strong cash conversion support the rating, although capital efficiency remains weak.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 1.01%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
CPT has a high-quality, liquid, relatively low-volatility profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
